How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 26 ÷ 54 = 0.481481
  2. Multiply by 100: 0.481481 × 100 = 48.1481%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 48.1481% of 54 is 0.481481 × 54 = 26.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 26/54 = p/100, so p = 26 × 100 ÷ 54 = 48.1481%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =26/54*100. Dividing the wrong way round (whole ÷ part) gives a different answer. The number after “of” is always the whole, so it goes on the bottom.
